CompareGet started

Doubao Seed 1.6 Vision is ByteDance's multimodal Doubao model, served through Volcengine, with strong image understanding and visual reasoning. It accepts images alongside text and supports tool use (function calling) and prompt caching, which makes it a good fit for image-grounded analysis and multimodal assistants that need to call external tools on what they see. Like the rest of the Doubao Seed 1.6 family it offers a long context window, and repeated instructions are billed at the lower cache rate. Context: 256K tokens, output: 32K. Released 2025-08-15. Accessible via the OpenAI-compatible protocol.
